In this final chapter of our three part story on the final days of passenger operations at Istanbul Ataturk Airport, we present a last ever flight to Ataturk Airport, this final time being from Izmir aboard a THY Turkish Airlines Airbus A321.

This Turkish Airlines flight was documented by JetFlix TV founder Henry Tenby, on September 18, 2018. The 57 minute flight departed at 1835 and arrived at Istanbul at 1932, just as night was falling and the airport lights were coming to life during the extended taxi to the airbridge.

This marks and end of some 20 years of flights into and out of Ataturk airport by Henry Tenby, and the airport holds a special place in his heart. This video serves as a lasting tribute to a great airport named after an even greater man, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, the Father of the modern day Turkish Republic.
